Teeth with Associated Pathology

Symptoms of Oral Pathology

Not all patients experience symptoms associated with oral pathology such as jaw cysts, tumors or soft tissue growths. Many patients become aware of the abnormal tissue only through their annual oral screening exam.

Make an appointment with Dr. Frattellone if you detect any of the following:

       • Red patches of the oral tissues

       • White patches of the oral tissues

       • Red and white patches

       • A sore or ulcer that has not healed and bleeds easily

       • An abnormal lump or thickening of the oral tissues

       • Chronic sore throat or hoarseness

       • Difficulty in chewing or swallowing

       • A lump or mass in your neck

What to Expect When You Visit

You will require an examination that will likely include x-rays and a detailed oral examination with or without the use of specialized diagnostic tools such as the VELscope. Dr. Frattellone will discuss his initial findings and suggest a treatment plan. Sometimes, a biopsy of the area will be indicated. In this case, the entire lesion or part of the lesion may be surgically removed and sent to a special oral pathology laboratory to be inspected. The report from the lab will determine the next stage of treatment. If the lesion is malignant, more extensive tests and surgery will be required. Most oral lesions are benign and can be removed without further risk of relapse; however, whenever there is an abnormality, early diagnosis and treatment is the key to a full recovery.
